tnt were 12/5 onetime..after that zia dropped a catch of shakib's bowling and everything went down..shakib's bowling was awful after that

[Rabz]

Only we manage to lose from having the opposition 12/5 !!
We lost once before having SL 6/5 !!

Incredible !

[fuadomar]

Afghanistan are the champions of the Asia v Caribbean tournament! (net run rate).

We actually lost the only 20-20. We won a 15 and a 8 over match.

Tonight will give us some clue.

I asked this question before the match began.
I'm afraid my concerns came true.
We are yet to be that polished and professional enough to go out there and get the job done.
One or two wins are ok, but overall in a series ??
Not yet.

We were expected to clean things up in the quadrangular series.
We had them down at 12/5 chasing 125.

It was turning out to be a good outing, 3 days of play for US$ 50,000.

But inevitably we lost the plot and the dignity and money along with it.
Conceded the cup to Afghanistan and continued with our habit of slipping where we shouldn't.
These are not men yet. Still boys.

I think to an extent that the team has ability but the problem is their execution. Why did we have to mess around with the batting line up today? Nothing but over confidence and underestimation of the opponent. You guys are saying how could we have lost from 12/5 but the reality is defending such a small target in T20 is never going to be easy. Anything can be chased down in the last 5 overs, as long as Nasir is not batting! We missed Tamim and Mashrafee big time today. We have to identify out match winners and play them every game if possible.

Ahare, guru shishsho'r mohobbot

Zinat, khulo khulo, no problem.
Khali harle kil (virtual) ektao mati te porbena, thik ase ??

And don't ask me to open one either.
The whole 7+ years I'm here, I've opened only 1 international match thread.
BD V Eng 1st test at Lords, back in 2005. ( That was also my first thread).

Since then only another match thread, but that was domestic, last year's BD National V A team.

It was only a practice match. Maybe Pybus was looking at all the possible combinations with the batting order and how they'd fare. So, relax.
